Our route took us through the east edge of the White Mountains which are located on the west border of Maine. When we came to this lake, we thought it was Kezar Lake, but someone told us Kezar Lake was farther down the road. This is Keewaydin Lake, a 263 acre lake. Our highway turned from 35 to 5. When we came to North Lovell, we decided to take a road that was on the map around Kezar Lake to the west side. We drove for about 7 miles, and never got a glimpse of the lake. The road also became narrower to the point, it was one lane. We decided it was time to turn around. I would not advise, driving on the west border of the lake. It was a waste of time and gas money. On our way back, a car came down the same road, and I asked him where we should go to see the lake. He told us that there was a place at the SE corner of the lake near an Inn. We never would have seen the lake, except for his information. We have found some lakes are very hard to see, because they are surrounded by private land. After we got home, my research told me that it is called a hidden lake, because you do not see it from the road. Kezar Lake is 2510 acres, and one of the clearest lakes in Maine. There are many New Yorkers who have summer homes on the lake. |
